Five Amateur Men’s Hockey Players on Team USA!

I am pleased to inform my readers that there are five Olympians on the USA men’s hockey team that are glad the NHL players are OUT. I found four collegians and one player who did not have a pro citation. And here they are:

Will Borgen plays for St. Cloud State University (MN)

Ryan Donato plays for Harvard

Brian Gionta has no pro team listed

Jordan Greenway plays for Boston University

Troy Terry plays for University of Denver

Now there are too many pro players on all or most of the rosters at the Games. (I am sticking to the men’s rosters tonight and here is Wikipedia’s report. Let’s cover the women tomorrow evening.)

It is hard to tell what teams are pro and maybe semi-pro or a club team – but the only other college player appears to be Ludvig Hoff on the Norway team from University of North Dakota.

So, my readers, let’s root root hard for the USA team this year and Norway against everybody else.
